Chapter 25.2, Problem 1BC
Summary Introduction
To determine: The role of diversifying selection in the diversity of honeycreepers on the Hawaiian Islands.
Introduction: The geographical locations that are highly isolated from other parts of the world allow a high rate of evolution of a small group of organisms into a vast number of different species. This is an example of allopatric

Question: Summarize how new species can arise by explaining the differences between allopatric and sympatric isolation.

STEP 1 Gather your materials. You should have: . 1 fork, 1 knife, 1 spoon, and a length of tape (each will be used toestablish the distinct predator "feeding apparatuses")· 4 cups (each will serve as a distinct predator's "mouth")· 3 types of prey (such as popcorn, macaroni, and kidney beans)· 1 clearly delineated habitat (such as a table, a box, or a roped-off areaof ground). 1 timer that allows for counting by seconds (such as a watch or cellphone) STEP 2 Set up the predators. There is variation in predatory feeding apparatuses in this population. You will choose one of the available predator feeding apparatuses: fork, spoon, knife, or four fingers (with your thumb taped to your hand so that you cannot use it). You will also take a cup, which will represent the predator's mouth. Your goal will be to use your feeding apparatus to collect food and put it inyour mouth. STEP 3 Set up the…arrow_forward
